Why this brasero plancha

Built to last for decades.

No electronics, no gimmicks. Just steel, fire and twenty years of good times around the table.

01

3mm corten steel & 8mm plancha

Where other braseros warp after two seasons, ours only gain character. The bowl develops its own unique patina, the plancha stays perfectly flat. Made for a lifetime.

02

Fire in the centre, cooking all around

100cm of circular plancha with the fire in the centre. Everyone cooks their own dish, and everyone stays around the fire. Togetherness isn't optional — it's the rule.

03

Handcrafted, hand-welded

Every Passe Partout spends three days in our Marcinelle workshop. Cut, welded, powder-coated, inspected. Nothing leaves without passing through our hands.

The workshop

Every brasero plancha passes through my hands.

No subcontracting. No assembly line. I cut, I weld, I powder-coat, I inspect. Three days of work per brasero plancha, in my workshop in Marcinelle. Every piece that leaves here carries a number, a quality check and the standards I've held myself to since day one.

The corten steel of the bowl weathers beautifully over the seasons. The powder coating withstands thermal shock. The IPE wood side panels shrug off Belgian rain. Every detail is designed to last twenty years, not two.

The real maths

Why €1,497 is a fair price.

An entry-level brasero at €299 lasts two seasons. Ours lasts twenty. The maths speaks for itself.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know.

The questions we're asked most often. Anything else? Damien answers directly by phone.

Lead time is usually 5 working days for a standard order. If you choose a custom colour (bespoke powder coating), allow about 8 extra days of production. Delivery and installation at your home are free in Belgium.
No problem at all. I deliver myself, anywhere in Belgium, free of charge, with the right vehicle — you don't need a thing. On site, the base is 60 cm wide, so it fits through all standard doors and hallways (including narrow corridors, stairs and tight corners). As for the bowl and the plancha, I carry them one at a time, on their side: that way they fit through anywhere, even a 70 cm door. Terrace at the bottom of the garden, third-floor flat, tricky access — we always find a way. Hence the name "Passe Partout" (French for "fits through anywhere"). 😉
Yes, fully. We deliver, install and position your brasero plancha exactly where you want it in your garden. There's nothing to assemble or prepare — just light your first fire.
We offer a 2-year warranty on the structure and welds. The materials (corten steel, S235 plancha, IPE wood) are designed for regular outdoor use and stand up perfectly to the weather.
Yes — that's our "L'Essai Brareseau" offer. You rent a Passe Partout for 1 to 10 days (from €150). If you then decide to buy, the full rental amount is deducted from the purchase price. There's no risk.
Very simple: empty the ashes after each use and oil the plancha after each cook (neutral oil). The corten steel bowl will naturally develop its characteristic brown patina — that's intentional, and it protects the bowl. The IPE wood handles the weather perfectly.
Yes, Le Passe Partout is built to live outdoors all year round. The base is matte black powder-coated: the coating is baked on at high temperature, creating a hard, durable barrier against rust, UV and thermal shock. The corten steel bowl develops its characteristic brown patina over the seasons — this surface oxidation is controlled and protects the steel deep down (that's the whole point of corten). Finally, the IPE wood side panels are naturally rot-proof and shrug off Belgian rain. No annual treatment needed.
Yes, at no extra cost. The metal structure can be powder-coated in the colour of your choice (matte, satin or gloss). This option adds about 8 days to the production time. Get in touch to discuss the finish you have in mind.
All the usual methods: Bancontact, Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, iDEAL, Shop Pay. Payment is 100% secure.
With its 100 cm plancha (a usable cooking band of ~29.5 cm all around the 45 cm central opening), Le Passe Partout comfortably cooks for 15 to 30 people. Ideal for family meals, events or professional use.
